Diocletian's Palace, Split (Italian: Spalato, Latin: Spalatum), Croatia
The palace was built for Diocletian in the early 4th century. The emperor spent the rest of his life here after his abdication. The complex combines the qualities of a luxury residence with a military camp.
The palace was integrated into the urban texture of the medieval Split. It was "discovered" in the 18th century. Robert Adam, the neoclassical architect studied the palace intensively.
The site is included in the World Cultural Heritage list of UNESCO.

Split dates back to third century AD, a Roman settlement under Diocletian.
In the middle ages became autonomous commune.
Today it is the second largest city (counts 200.000 souls) in Croatia.
Split, the 15lb wonder, decided to pose for me today.
